Tropical Escapes – Stampin' with inkybutterfly

Tropical Sketch

Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is inspired by a sketch challenge set by Ian Potter

I have adjusted the measurements to suit my design.

The background features the beautiful Tropical Escape DSP.

The pieces were trimmed to size. The uppermost layer measuring 3 inches wide.

A sentiment from the coordinating stamp bundle was stamped with Shaded Spruce ink.

Additional leaves were die cut from the DSP sheets and layered below the sentiment.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Hi Everyone,

I have used Tropical Chic to make my project, starting with a Shaded Spruce card base.

Some Designer Series Paper was adhered to the front.

A complementary paper was cut to 2-1/2 by 3-1/2 inches.

A Whisper White piece was cut to the same dimensions and stamped with Blushing Bride leaves.

Soft Sea Foam and Shaded Spruce inks were used for the sentiment before adhering to the card with dimensionals.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Just Thanks #GDP160

Hello Everyone,

It’s Global Design Project challenge time. This week it’s a case the designer challenge from Krista.

The sample card is gorgeous… Using one of my most favourite stamp sets.

The design team have made some great projects based on Krista’s design. You can see them all here

I resisted using the same stamp set and instead pulled out Tropical Chic and the matching dies and paper.

Some patterned paper was adhered to a white card base.

On a separate white card layer, I stamped the palm leaves with Soft Sea Foam ink. This layer was added to the card with dimensionals.

On a separate scrap of card, the sentiment was stamped with Berry Burst ink. Powder Pink ink was used to add the stripes to the edge.

Another palm leaf was stamped in Shaded Spruce ink and die cut.

A small bow of Berry Burst Ruffled Ribbon was adhered with glue dots. Gold pearls completed the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

Hi Folks,

Inspire.Create #023

Good Morning,

Welcome to another Inspire. Create challenge post. The team have a sketch challenge this time. All of their inspirational ideas can be seen here!

And this my creation featuring Tropical Escapes Designer Series Paper.

I started with a Whisper White card base.

Two pieces of paper were selected from the pack, I went with the complementary greens. A 2 inch strip was cut from each.

Each strip was cut down to 5-3/4 inches to fit the card base. Then again a 2-1/2 inches.

The pieces were then secured to the card base with snail adhesive.

A length of Lemon Lime Twist mini Ruffled ribbon was adhered along the join.

A sentiment from the coordinating stamp set was stamped on to a strip of white card stock using Shaded Spruce ink. This was added with dimensionals.

Some die cut leaves added some extra texture.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Tropical Greatness

Hi there,

I just love the Tropical Chic bundle and matching papers.

Two pieces of patterned paper were cut diagonally to create the background.

The centre piece was made using a 2-1/4 inch circle of Shaded Spruce card stock, a Starburst punch from Soft Sea Foam and a 2 inch circle.

The sentiment was stamped with Shaded Spruce ink.

Some Powder Pink ruffled ribbon was looped between the layers.

Finally, some extra leaves were die cut from Shaded Spruce card stock.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

Beautiful Day #GDP146

Hi Everyone,

The Global Design Project has a sketch challenge this week. There is lots of inspiration over at the blog. You can see them all here!

This is my project.

Some Tropical Escapes Designer Series Paper was adhered to a Whisper White card base.

A piece of Whisper White card stock was cut to 2-3/4 by 3-1/2 inches. This was matted on to some Early Espresso card stock.

A left over scrap of Very Vanilla card stock was adhered to the bottom of the panel. A 1/2 inch strip of DSP was added to this.

Some silver baker’s twine was tied at the bottom.

The sentiment was stamped with Memento ink, trimmed to size and corners rounded.

Three butterflies were stamped, coloured and die cut.

The elements were arranged on the card and adhered with multipurpose glue and dimensionals.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!
